Jordan POV

Having Simone so close made me see things in a different way. It's not that something had changed between us, I don't think that's the reason... but deep inside I feel a little guilt.

Her parents preferred to kick her out of the house rather than support her. At the end of the day no one knew how that felt, only her and to think that everything was happening largely because of me made me feel terrible.

- What are you doing awake so early? — Mom's voice brought me back to reality — And cooking? She said even more surprised.

- I'm trying to make breakfast for Simone — I continued — I'm sure she had a pretty rough night. By the way... Thank you very much for welcoming her here mom. I know we are still very young but...

- Jordan. It's the least I can do Okay? — she interrupted me — You are my baby and she's gonna make me a grandma... of two — she thought for a few seconds and spoke again — Omg. "Grandma" don't tell anyone I said grandma ok? Your dad is already out and I have some meetings so I'm on my way out. If you need anything call...

I nodded as she leave the house.

Is not like that I knew what I was doing, but I'm trying.

I could have gotten Liv to help me, even Spencer could help. They arrived last night and they still in their rooms, so it's better not to go there. We knew they were up to something, they just think no one notices.

I finished breakfast and went up to the guest room which was now her's. I thought for a few seconds before knocking on the door. If a few months ago they had told me that I would have a girl living with me under the same roof, I would not believe them... and if they told me that I would be expecting two babies with her I would say that they are crazy, but here we are.

I knocked on the door as best I could with breakfast in my hands and waited...

A few seconds later I heard her voice on the other end

-One second... — was all she said

However, in my stomach felt as if she had talked a lot more. As if she had told me that it was the end of the world

-Hey - she spoke already in front of me

At what point had she opened the door?

- Hey — I said and she just stepped aside to pass — I make breakfast

- For an army? — she joked — I guess you're going to have breakfast with us...

- It was supposed to be just for you — she started laughing and spoke again

-Jordan - she looked me in the eyes and I smiled - Are you kidding? All this breakfast?

OK. Maybe I had exaggerated a bit but in my defense now she eats for 3 people

She turned around taking a seat on the bed as she offered me a piece of bacon...

- Did you do all this?

I nodded as I sat next to her eating the piece of bacon she had given me.

- You know you don't have to do any of this, right? Just welcoming me here is enough...

-It doesn't bother me - I continued - You have two babies there and that's already a lot of work... besides, at least I have someone who suffers with me whatever Spencer and Oliva bring

- Oh they totally have something right? — She ask me and start laugh — I thought I was the only one who had noticed

- Oh please no, that's disgusting
